Exterior and Interior

Mille Miglia Red is the color worn by this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Stingray LS6 and let us tell you, the car looks amazing! It’s got pop-up headlamps, dainty chrome bumpers and silver wheels with Goodyear Wide Tread F70-15 tires. The C3’s breathtaking shape was lifted nearly unchanged from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II concept car of the early Sixties, resulting in what you see here. For the 1970 and 1971 model years, Chevy brought in an egg-crate grille design with matching front-side fender vents and directional lamps incorporated within. At the rear, the exhaust vents were changed from circular to rectangular units, and the fenders were flared to reduce wheel-thrown damage. There’s an audio alarm system as well, to keep this car safe. The interior of this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Stingray LS6 comes with black leather upholstery for the two seats, a tilt and telescopic steering column, and even a tire pressure sticker in keeping things as stock as possible. You’ve also got a push-button AM/FM radio, and the trick fiber-optic indicators that tell you if a taillamp or license plate lamp is out. But perhaps most alluring is the plaque beneath the gear shifter that tells you the power output for this particular engine choice.

Engine

Rated at 425hp and 475lb-ft, the 454ci Turbo-Jet V8 under the hood of this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe Stingray LS6 is an absolute beast.

1962 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop Coupe

For Sale
ASK: $27,799
Miles: 63,156
Estimated: $274.33/mo

The 1962 Ford Thunderbird represents an era when American personal luxury cars were designed to make a statement, combining dramatic styling, powerful V8 engines, and an emphasis on comfort that distinguished them from conventional automobiles. Part of the third-generation Thunderbird lineup, affectionately known as the "Bullet Bird" for its distinctive streamlined design, the 1962 model featured a sculpted body, prominent chrome detailing, and a luxurious passenger compartment that reflected Ford's ambitious approach to personal transportation. This particular 1962 Ford Thunderbird Hardtop Coupe, showing 63,156 miles, is finished in Corinthian White over a striking Red interior and boasts an especially interesting ownership history dating back to its original purchase on October 15, 1962. According to the seller, the vehicle has passed through just three owners, with the current owner retaining it since July 2007 and overseeing an extensive series of refresh and maintenance efforts. Even more intriguing is the discovery of original Ford ROT manufacturing sheets, period service receipts, factory assembly markings, and other historical artifacts that provide a tangible connection to the car's earliest years. Powered by a 390ci V8 paired with a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission, this Thunderbird also benefits from reported upper-engine rebuilding, cooling system improvements, renewed brake components, and a retrofit air conditioning system. With its distinctive color combination, documented historical discoveries, and extensive collection of accompanying spare parts, this Thunderbird presents an appealing combination of classic American luxury and enthusiast provenance.
